As described above, according to the present invention, the work in the supply path of the separation supply section is sucked by the air suction port and sent into the storage section of the transfer table, and the subsequent work in the supply path is supplied. Air can be stopped by being pressed against the other wall surface of the supply path by air from an air ejection port provided on one wall surface of the path. As a result, the works sent from the feeder can be surely separated one by one and supplied to the storage section of the transfer table. In addition, the needle, pad, and separation pin provided in the conventional automatic supply device are not required, and the work can be separated and supplied only by operating the air ejection port, thereby simplifying the mechanism for separating and supplying the work. it can.
